ok, works now and is uploaded ... had to find and fix a bug in cases where not
all columns are present on a page

actually, right now it only works if the document has at least 2 columns
because I started out with the code from ftnright, but that should be easy to
extend to the general case.

layout is called "ftnrightspread" and you can review the results in the pdf

it doesn't really improve the particular document because as a result of the
footnote move less good page/column breaks are taken, but this is purely
bad luck
